Basically, the reason why I'd suggest deleting the 18 standalone type pages is the same as why we're against the creation of individual articles for each Pokemon species on this site. Having sufficient content unique to PBB is one of the criteria we consider when creating a page, no matter in main namespace or Appendix.

Without the unique contents, it is much harder to write things in our own words, and the articles will be nothing different from (if not worse than) other widely used sites like Bulbapedia, Serebii.net, Pokemon Database and even Smogon anyway. The failure of Egg Group page is an example.

Pokemon lists with obtaining locations are the only stuff unique to PBB in the type pages. To me, the page Pokedex and those type pages cannot co-exist, because the Pokemon lists are going to overlap.
